| Commercial Property: Did you know that Massachusetts codes require the owner, tenant or lessee of every building or structure to be responsible for the care and maintenance of all fire alarm systems in their control to ensure the safety and welfare of the occupants? In addition, the city or town may have an ordinance requiring your building or entire association's fire/sprinkler alarm system be tested periodically throughout the year. Building fire alarm systems may consist of many devices, including a main control panel, remote annunciator panel, standby batteries, fire department or central station connection, manual pull stations, horn/light units, smoke detectors, heat detectors, sprinkler switches, door holders and fire department fire phones.
|
Also, HVAC systems, roof hatches, card access/intercom systems and elevator controllers may be interconnected with the fire alarm system. The fire alarm system is one of the most important components of a building. However, many times it is also the most neglected and overlooked component. Call Atlas Alarm Corporation today for a free survey of your fire alarm needs.

| Residential Property: Your home may now be secure from break-ins, but what about fire, the potential danger within? You may already have battery operated or 110VAC powered smoke detectors, but who would hear them if you're gone? If they are not connected to your security system and are not monitored, who would call the fire department before your possessions or pets are destroyed? Fire can strike anyone, anywhere, anytime. It won't be frightened by an alarm, like a burglar would. The burglar won't steal your family photo albums, but a fire will. Jewelry can be replaced, but baby pictures can't.
|
Even though you have a monitored security system, without monitored smoke detectors, your home will never be secure against one of the most dangerous intruders. Monitored smoke detectors protect you and your home 24 hours a day, whether your security system is armed or disarmed, whether you are home or away. Call us today for a free evaluation of your fire alarm needs.
